question

The next morning, Ling Jianghan walked around the living room a few times before asking, "Qi Wuchen, where did you put my paper?"

"In my schoolbag." Qi Wuchen threw the schoolbag over his shoulder, picked up fruits and milk in each hand and was about to leave.

"Wait," Ling Jianghan stopped him, "You took all the things, so what should I carry?"

"?" Qi Wuchen stared at Chuyi lying on the ground, "Aren't you carrying a cat?"

"..." Jiang Han looked at him, speechless: "You are the only one allowed to have two hands in this world?"

Qi Wuchen pretended to be deaf, changed his shoes and walked out the door.

Five minutes later, two more people appeared at the entrance of the community.

The taller one was carrying milk and fruit in one hand, while the shorter one was carrying a shoulder bag and a cat in her left hand.

"Qi Wuchen," Ling Jianghan asked, "How should I call your mother later?"

"Where are you going to see my mother?" Qi Wuchen smiled, "She passed away ten years ago."

Jiang Han was stunned and was about to apologize.

"No need to apologize." Qi Wuchen didn't care. After thinking for a while, he continued, "You can call Xiaoyun's mother Aunt Yun like me."

"good."

"Have you never heard me mention it?" Qi Wuchen asked with a smile, "Do you want to hear it?"

Ling Jianghan simply said, "I'll listen to whatever you want to say."

Later, they didn't hear the message, and Uncle Wang came to pick them up. He stepped on the accelerator and took them directly to their doorstep.

As soon as the two got out of the car, Qi Yun, who had been waiting for a long time, ran out and hugged Qi Wuchen: "Second brother!"

"Long time no see," Qi Wuchen gently pinched Qi Yun's face with his other hand, then turned him to face Ling Jianghan: "This is Ling Jianghan, my brother."

"Hello, Brother Ling." Qi Yun looked up at Ling Jianghan and introduced himself very seriously: "My name is Qi Yun, you can call me Xiao Yun!"

Ling Jianghan bent down to look into his grape-like eyes and greeted him with a smile: "Hello, Xiaoyun."

Qi Yun's eyes lit up immediately when he saw the pet airline box in Ling Jianghan's hand. He pointed at the cat with his little hand and asked, "Is this Brother Ling's cat? Can I play with it?"

"sure."

After getting permission, Qi Yun reached out to take the box from Ling Jianghan, but he heard Qi Wuchen beside him suddenly say, "Xiao Yun, take Brother Ling in first."

"Okay!" Qi Yun took Ling Jianghan's hand and left.

Qi Wuchen sighed quietly when he saw this scene.

Before he could even grab the hand, Qi Yun grabbed it first.

It’s not easy to chase a wife.

After they went in together, Yun Ren, who had just come out of the kitchen, hurriedly asked Jiang Han to sit down and asked Qi Yun to pour him a glass of water.

Ling Jiang Han smiled politely at Yun Ren, who was still wearing an apron: "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, not hard at all," Yun Ren waved his hands and looked at him with a smile, "Jiang Han, right? He's handsome and sweet-talking. It's great to have a friend like you."

At this time, the sound of a door opening was heard from the second floor. Jiang Han looked over and saw Qi Chiyue, who was sleepy and had messy hair.

Qi Chiyue had just gotten up, and with his eyes half closed and his mind half unclear, he scratched his hair and looked downstairs: "Who's here?"

When she looked down, her mind was completely switched on.

Um? ? ?

Where did this handsome guy come from?

She didn't care whether she was wearing any makeup or not, and went downstairs to get closer to Ling Jianghan with this look.

Qi Wuchen had just put the fruit on the coffee table when he saw his sister sitting next to Ling Jianghan, saying, "Hello, handsome guy, what's your name?"

Ling Jianghan was startled by this frighteningly hot passion and subconsciously shrank back: "... Ling Jianghan."

"Oh, Ling Jianghan..." Qi Chiyue repeated word by word, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "It's a good name."

"Oh," she said after a while, pointing at Qi Wuchen who was standing beside the coffee table, "My name is Qi Chiyue, and I'm this brat's biological sister."

"I'm going to the kitchen to cook," Yun Ren said with a smile to the two people on the sofa, "You guys have a good chat."

"I'm going to wash up," Qi Chiyue waved at Qi Wuchen like a dog, "Come and keep me company, you little brat."

After Qi Chiyue finished speaking, he yawned and went upstairs. When he was about to reach the bathroom, he turned around and went into the study.

In the past, she shared a study with Qi Wuchen and Qi Yun. Although there were still three tables and three bookshelves in it, Qi Yun used it the most now.

Qi Chiyue opened the second drawer under his desk and took out a small piece of paper.

She placed the ball of paper on the table and slowly spread it out. On it was a bunch of complicated and scribbled formulas, mixed with a few English words.

There were only three Chinese characters squeezed into the lower left corner of the entire paper - Ling Jianghan.

Qi Chiyue stared at the three words for a long time, and finally put the crumpled paper back into the drawer.

She accidentally picked up this ball of paper the year Qi Wuchen graduated from junior high school.

At that time, the cleaning lady somehow put this piece of paper on Qi Chiyue's desk. After she found out that it was Qi Wuchen's draft paper, she was about to throw it away. Suddenly, she remembered that many people said that students' draft papers sometimes had some things that were not related to learning. So she carefully observed this inconspicuous draft paper with a bit of curiosity.

Unexpectedly, when she took a look, she actually discovered this name that she had never heard Qi Wuchen mention before.

Qi Chiyue knew who Qi Wuchen’s friends were in junior high school, but she had never heard Qi Wuchen mention the names on this paper.

Thinking of this, Qi Chiyue couldn't help feeling confused.

If Qi Wuchen and Ling Jianghan knew each other in junior high school, why had he never mentioned this person before?

Could it be that she forgot?

That shouldn’t be the case. My memory has always been top-notch. It’s no exaggeration to say that I can remember everything I see.

Qi Chiyue thought for a long time and finally decided to ask Qi Wuchen directly later.

During the meal, Yun Min kept picking up some food for Ling Jianghan, so much so that Ling Jianghan felt full just from eating the food before he even finished much of the rice.

After the meal, several people rushed to wash the dishes. Finally, Yun Ren gave an order and asked Qi Wuchen to carry the bowls into the kitchen.

Qi Yun got off the table and went to play with Chuyi again. Qi Chiyue, who was behind him, pointed at the white ball and asked in surprise, "Where did this cat come from?"

"It's your brother's." Qi Yun looked at her with some confusion while holding the cat.

Qi Chiyue's eyes widened after hearing this.

When she wanted to get a cat, she was strongly opposed by Qi Wuchen. Why is this cat allowed to enter their house now?

Qi Chiyue became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, so he turned around and went into the kitchen.

Qi Wuchen, who was washing dishes, heard the noise and turned around to look at her. Seeing her coming, he asked, "Why did you come in? Are you helping me wash the dishes?"

Qi Chiyue didn't waste time talking to him and went straight to the point and asked, "When did you two meet?"

Qi Wuchen paused for a moment: "What do you mean, when did you meet?"

"Don't play deaf to me." Qi Chiyue was not so easily fooled and continued to ask, "When did you and Ling Jianghan meet?"

Qi Wuchen knew he had run into a tough guy, so he had no choice but to say, "We've known each other for a long time."

"How early is early? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

Qi Wuchen selectively replied, "He wasn't very righteous and forgot about me, so I don't want to mention him."

Qi Chiyue didn't bother to consider the credibility of this statement, and continued to ask: "Then what is your relationship?"

"Don't talk to me about friends," Qi Chiyue said without waiting for his answer, "Friends, didn't I see you bring the cat from Hu Chen's house? That's enough to fool Aunt Yun and Xiaoyun, don't use it to fool me and your dad."

Qi Wuchen turned off the faucet and tried to defend himself: "I..."

Qi Chiyue uttered "eh" again, not giving him a chance to speak: "Maybe you can't even fool Aunt Yun, so you can only fool Xiao Yun."

Qi Wuchen: “…”

"I'm not trying to hit you. Tell me yourself. Who in the family doesn't know that you hate cats and dogs the most? Before coming here, not only did you ask Uncle Wang to buy a bag of cat food, but you also sent a message to remind Aunt Yun to avoid other people's sad things." She reached out and poked Qi Wuchen in the chest. "Ask yourself honestly, do you treat Ling Jianghan the same way as they do?"

Qi Wuchen slapped Qi Chiyue's hand away and said in a desperate struggle, "How can it be as exaggerated as you say."

"Did I say something wrong?" Qi Chiyue pressed his shoulders and shook him back and forth, gritting her teeth as if she wanted to strangle him to death. "Last year, when I got a cat, you refused to let me take it home. Then, when I brought it home for a meal, you slammed the door and ran away! Tell me, you bastard!?"

"If you keep rocking, I'm not going to be able to wash the dishes anymore!" Qi Wuchen pulled her hands away and started smashing the jars: "I love the whole house and the whole family, it's meaningless."

Qi Chiyue let go of his hands, looking as if the sky had fallen.

She pointed at Qi Wuchen and called him "you" for a long time, and finally just whispered angrily, "Aren't you afraid that Qi Zhinian will beat you to death?!"

"If you were afraid of death, I wouldn't chase you." Qi Wuchen turned on the faucet and continued to wash his dishes, looking like he wouldn't cry until he was beaten to death or scolded.

Qi Chiyue stared at him with a complicated expression for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh.

From childhood to adulthood, no one can stop Qi Wuchen from doing what he is determined to do, just like their mother Sheng Ruoshen.

Qi Chiyue, like Qi Zhinian, is a person who knows when to retreat; while Qi Wuchen, like Sheng Ruoshen, insists on going down one path to the end.

Qi Chiyue was silent for a long time, and finally looked at Qi Wuchen with a serious expression, his tone more serious than ever before: "Let me ask you, what are your plans?"

"No need to plan." Qi Wuchen finished washing the dishes and began to wash his hands. He said in a calm tone: "Either I will invite you to the wedding banquet, or he will invite me to the wedding banquet."

"and you……"

"Sister," Qi Wuchen interrupted her, turned his head and looked at her and said, "I don't have to chase him."

Qi Chiyue was puzzled when he heard this and subconsciously asked, "Then what are you trying to do?"

"I hope he's safe." Qi Wuchen lowered his head, staring at the floor and said softly, "I can accept watching him get better as a bystander in the future."

“…”

Qi Chiyue knew that there was no need to persuade him any further, so he asked, "Do you need my help?"

Qi Wuchen shook his head as expected.

Qi Chiyue knew that Qi Wuchen had always fought for everything he liked since he was a child, so he patted him on the shoulder and turned to leave.

When he came out of the kitchen, there were only two people and a cat left in the living room.

Ling Jiang Han imitated Qi Wuchen's smooth spinning of the bubble wand that night, while Qi Yun raised his first-grade cat paw to hit the bubbles floating in the air.

Jiang Han turned and retreated, seemingly having a lot of fun, completely unaware that Qi Wuchen was standing behind him.

Seeing this, Qi Wuchen didn't say anything to remind him, but just stood there silently and let Ling Jianghan bump into him.

Qi Wuchen reached out to support him and said with a bit of amusement, "Slow down, who's responsible if you fall?"

Ling Jianghan was startled by the collision and turned around and said to the person behind him, "It's your fault. Who told you to walk quietly?"

Qi Wuchen lowered his head slightly at this moment. He was very close to Ling Jianghan. Now that Ling Jianghan turned his head, their breathing became entangled.

Ling Jiang Han stared at Qi Wuchen's eyes for two seconds, then immediately took a step forward to increase the distance between them.

Before he could figure out why his heart skipped a beat, he heard Qi Wuchen's voice, neither hurried nor slow, "Who told you not to have eyes in the back of your head?"

"Do you have eyes on the back of your head? Let me see them." Ling Jianghan glared at him unhappily and turned to sit on the sofa.

As soon as she saw him sit down, she slipped out of Qi Yun's arms and jumped onto Ling Jianghan's legs with her short legs.

Jiang Han rubbed the cat silently, calmly recalling the eye contact just now.

The distance was so close that Jiang Han could even clearly see himself in Qi Wuchen's eyes.

Thinking back now, Jiang Han is still a little puzzled: Wasn't it just that they were a little closer, and they didn't kiss, so why was he so nervous?

Is it because he is not used to physical contact with others?

What a joke. Wasn’t it fine when Sheng Yao mistook him for Qi Wuchen and hugged his shoulders before?

Jiang Han pondered over it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Finally, Qi Wuchen's voice interrupted his thoughts: "Where are Aunt Yun and the others?"

"He went out." Ling Jianghan answered without raising his head.

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a door opening was heard at the entrance.

The three of them looked up at the same time. Qi Yun was the first to react and immediately rushed over to hug the person who came back.

"dad!"
